Default RE: E-flite Deuces Wild 25e2 ARF

I brought my Deuces Wild to the field this weekend to test out my retract fix. Over the winter, Iadded washers in between the Robart retract mechanism and the fuselage body. This allowed the retract to latch properly without binding. As the new video shows, the retracts worked perfectly!

My next change will be to test the Zinger 12" wood props. The stock 13" APC props are a bit long and tend to mow the grass during taxi and take-off. Since I have much more power than I need, the smaller 12" props should work well.
